If you can imagine it, you can create it—anything from monolithic towers to cavernous rollercoasters. That’s the idea that sparked a world-building phenomenon in Mojang’s amazing Minecraft. Since the game's release on the App Store, a steady stream of meaningful updates has kept this cube-filled universe fun, fresh and jam-packed with exciting features.

Good & Bad

This app has some very good qualities but also has some frustrating and unfair bugs. Just last week I bought some coins from the store, the money left my account and there was an error. Although the money was taken from me, I haven’t received the coins that I payed for. This is a very frustrating matter. Exactly what happened was, the purchase “didn’t go through”. When I went into the app, after not getting the coins, something came up on my screen saying “incomplete purchase” and it asked me if I wanted to complete the purchase. After I clicked yes, the screen loaded for a bit and then told me to check my internet connection and sign into the App Store, because it can’t work. I have done many things to try and fix this. I closed everything then restarted my iPad, freed up storage, signed out then into the App Store again, signed into Xbox live, offloaded the app (deleted it but still had all the data), and did a lot of research on the topic. Apparently, lots of other people are having this issue. The exact same issue. The only reasonable solution I have read from someone say to sign into the Microsoft App Store, or something like that. I’m desperate for a solution. Seriously, I am tired of guessing. Please. Someone help me with this problem, and tell me if you have the same issue. Thank you for reading xx. Please fix this.

Fabulous

Each update is better than the last! I used to play minecraft on the PC obsessively but now I can play pretty much the same game on my iPad without having to fight my family for the computer. I LOVE the various ‘cheat’ options because creepers blowing up my stuff was a tad rage-inducing, but peaceful mode is borrrring!! I like the store, the things aren’t too expensive but a few more options would be good. I’m guessing you’ll never allow us to add our own texture packs because thats your income. BUT if we can’t add our own you gotta give us more to buy! I’m incredibly bored of the current texture packs. I have every single one except one which I’m not interested in. I don’t particularly like the ‘worlds’ you can buy, I prefer to play my own world, so seriously, more texture packs in the store PUH-LEEZ!

Oh, and to all the kids crying about the xbox thing, you do NOT need to buy an actual xbox console. You just go on the net and create an xbox live account. I don’t have an xbox and I play just fine. Ask your parents to help you if you’re having trouble. I repeat, no XBOX needed! Reading all the complaints about that made my eyes bleed, like honestly. Get a clue y’all.
